Spacious Cottage Perfect for a Peaceful and Quiet stay on the Ocean with Beach

Friendly Cottage on Oceanside, Bailey Island is now available for your seaside vacation, no matter the season. This well-insulated cottage, heated and cooled by solar and geothermal systems, is appealing during the less - crowded brisk Maine springs, the lazy ocean-breezed days of summer, the colorful crisp days of fall, or the quiet peaceful days of winter.
Friendly cottage is on the east side of the island with an unhindered view of Casco Bay and spectacular sunrises, and sits on a secluded beach at the dead end of a quiet neighborhood.
Yet, the cottage is in walking distance of the local general store, post office, a non-denominational church, several local eateries including the famous Cook's Lobster House as well as Mackerel Cove, the hub of the fishing and boating community. Entertaining and socializing has a comfortable flow in this 3 bedroom-2 bathroom home - perfect for family get-togethers, reunions, special events or simply a nest to enjoy the Maine experience. The nearest shopping centers are in Brunswick (13 miles away and a 30 minute drive). Stopping at a grocery store before you come to Bailey Island might be more convenient, although there is a general store with limited supplies.
Friendly Cottage is an excellent example of a home built with many innovative technologies including solar hot water panels and geothermal, just to name a few. If you are considering building an energy efficient home with all or some of these technologies, come for a stay!

Beautiful home with great views of the ocean from inside and out. The house was comfortable and very clean. Outside spaces were beautiful, loved the Adirondack chairs where the lawn met the ocean, well landscaped with lots of flowers, and the table and chairs next to the grill also had a great view. Loved exploring the small beaches you could walk to right from the house.

The description and pictures of this property did not do it justice! The views from the primary bedroom and living room were stunning. All of the furniture was extremely comfortable and every room was not only spotless, but beautifully decorated. Bailey island is small but has everything you could possibly want. We spent our afternoons exploring the area which included many cute little coastal towns all within an hours drive. These communities do a fantastic job supporting local artists - so you get a very unique and friendly experience everywhere you go. 10/10 would return!!

My family and I had a wonderful, relaxing stay at this beautiful spot. The best feature was the amazing ocean view from the living room and primary bedroom. Just a short walk from the door and across the lawn takes you to the water's edge and your comfy Adirondack chairs to take it all in. The cottage was clean, spacious and tastefully decorated. The kitchen was well-equipped if you are looking to make your own meals. There were also plenty of board games and some DVDs. Be aware that the few restaurants in the immediate area are closed Monday/Tuesday, at least at the time we were there (late May). Brunswick and Bath are around 30 minutes drive for more dining options. Our friendly hosts Eric and Laurie were always available if we needed anything, but we didn't since everything was great! Wish we could have stayed longer!

Mother daughter getaway

Friendly Cottage was beyond amazing for my week long getaway with my 2 daughters. The location and views can’t be beat and the house was perfectly laid out and equipped with everything we needed. We lucked out with incredible weather so found ourselves on the beach almost every morning and evening. We can’t wait to come back!
